Hello Deborah and list, In choosing a metal detector, you have to be careful in your choice. You want to avoid some of the older detectors because of the complicated use. This is an excerpt from the manual of a older model detector I once used;
(Some of you old timers ( 70's&80's) should remember this) This is from manual 5 of 7, page 982 Prehunt mode: Turn detector on using procedures outlined in manual 1 & 2, chapters 5 through 40. When a single beep is heard, depress buttons 3,7,8,12,19 and 34 at the same time, hold switch 4 (on bottom left) to the right, while simultaneously turning knob 8 (top right) slowly clockwise. While maintaining these settings, sweep detectors coil over the ground. Two beeps should sound, when they do, release buttons 7 & 19 flip switch 45 on the back of detector. Meanwhile, continue turning knob 8, holding switch 4, holding buttons 3,8,12 and 34. When 3 beeps are heard let go of buttons 34 & 8, let go of switch 4, let go of buttons 3 &12, stop turning knob 4, flip switch 45 back to it's starting position. Then flip switches 13, 22, 28,29, 32 and 73. You now have the detector turned on and have set the detector into Prehunt mode. Please see manual 6 of 7 to set the detector into hunt mode. Buy a easy to use detector!
